In many cases, it is very tough to imagine the difference in sensor sizes just by viewing technical specs. The picture below will give you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the T7 and RX100.

As you can tell, both of these cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The T7 due to its bigger sensor is going to make achieving bokeh easier and the Canon T7 will render greater detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop shots far more aggressively. The newer T7 should have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
